Q:Where can I find SmartSigns?

Q:Where can I find the Altitude Chart?

Once you select a bike route, press [Ride This Route] > Press the [Down] key to bring up the Altitude Chart, where you can zoom in/out to see detailed topographic changes.

Q:When should I do Altitude Calibration?

X5 Evo measures altitude using a barometric altimeter, which is highly sensitive to changes in air pressure and temperature. To ensure the accuracy of the altimeter under changing weather conditions, it is advised to manually set the altitude instead of using automatic adjustment by GPS.
Please find a location with a known altitude, or use Google Maps/Earth to check the alittude. Go to Quick Menu > [Altitude Calibration] > [Disable Auto Calibration] > [Select Altitude], and press the pen icon at the upper right corner to edit the altitude reference point. Up to three reference points can be preset for quick altitude correction later on.

Q:How do I change the display from kilometers to miles?

Go to [Settings] > [System] > [Units] and change from Metric system to Statute system.

Q:How do I adjust the backlight timeout? What are the options? How do I turn on auto brightness?

First, allow the unit to reacquire GPS satellite signals. If the unit is still unable to locate your current position, it might be because there are tall obstructions around you, such as elevated roads, high-rise buildings, and the like. Or you can reset the GPS receiver and locate your position again in an open area.

Q:How do I adjust the time set in X5 Evo's GPS module?

The GPS module automatically adjusts the time once it receives GPS signals from three of the (3D) satellites. Therefore, you don't need to change it manually.

Q:Once I finish my ride, do I need to plug in my PC to transfer my data?

Q:How do I combine my data and footage and share them on social media?

If an Xplova product's warranty has expired or is not in effect, will there be any additional costs incurred for repairs?

If the product is not within the duration or scope of warranty, the cost of parts and labor for repairs will be charged to the customer. Our customer service team will provide you with an accurate price quote.

What is the warranty period for the X5 Evo's accessories?

The main body of the accessories, such as the ANT+ Heart Rate Belt and ANT+ Speed-Cadence Sensor XA-CS2, is subject to one-year warranty period. However, the warranty does not apply to the related consumables, such as the Belet for XA-HR2 and Cadence magnets. This is because their lifespan is dependent upon their frequency and pattern of use. It is therefore recommended to replace these parts periodically.
